sirkut Posted May 11, 2014 Author Share Posted May 11, 2014 I haven't followed the discussion in quite some time, so forgive me if I am missing something.Today for the first time since 0.14 was released I decided to play around with a little more complex crane, consisting of many IR parts stacked on one another.I use it do dock components together via those tube parts that you see attached on the grapple.So...https://www.dropbox.com/s/tg7gez2md61z7ry/Screenshot%202014-05-11%2021.11.03.pnghttps://www.dropbox.com/s/undlujkjsicietc/Screenshot%202014-05-11%2021.10.11.pngI thought that issue was fixed in 0.14?You are missing something. Docking and moving stuff while docked is not fixed. The Next update fixed SOME docking issues but the one that hasn't been remedied is when you use pistons with a docking port and docking. The parents if the parts get screwy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sirkut Posted May 11, 2014 Author Share Posted May 11, 2014 When I do the next release I will list the bugs that are still present so people will know what to expect. I'm going to try to eliminate the constant questions that occur in this thread.this isn't directed at you smunisto just in case. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sirkut Posted May 12, 2014 Author Share Posted May 12, 2014 I'm finally getting close to an actual release. So far we have:1. Minimum Range tweakable so you can constraint the lowest value of travel (determined from part CG2. Maximum Range Tweakable so you can constraint the highest value of travel (determined from part CG3. Coarse speed tweakable - range .2 to 5 (increments to 0.2)4. Fine speed tweakable - range -0.2 to 0.2 (increments 0.01)5. Invert Symmetry tweakable (toggle)6. Lock motor tweakable (toggle)7. Undocking fix for the Servo Control window. When docked and one craft has 4 parts and the other has 4, when you undock the servo window will autofit to the current craft)8. breaking force/torgue values have been increased within the code, haven't yet deprecated the CFG values yet. They will read but have no affect on the settings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Galane Posted May 12, 2014 Share Posted May 12, 2014 7. Undocking fix for the Servo Control window. When docked and one craft has 4 parts and the other has 4, when you undock the servo window will autofit to the current craft)What happens if servo groups on 2 craft have the same name?

Keldor Posted May 12, 2014 Share Posted May 12, 2014 How about setting the initial extension/rotation of the parts, in particular, hinges? It's tricky to build folding apparatus when you're stuck with 0 and 180 degrees. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's tricky to build folding apparatus when you're stuck with 0 and 180 degrees.It would be nice and it has been asked time and time again. Maybe one day but I'm not going to hold off this release just to start work on an attempt on that feature. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sirkut Posted May 13, 2014 Author Share Posted May 13, 2014 How about this scenario. 2 crafts, each share the same group OutsideHinge while also having unique groups for each craft. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drew Kerman Posted May 13, 2014 Share Posted May 13, 2014 that's the way action groups behave when you dock craft correct? Very cool Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sirkut Posted May 13, 2014 Author Share Posted May 13, 2014 that's the way action groups behave when you dock craft correct? Very coolI suppose so. I don't use action groups much. I'm just glad to fix some of the docking bug issues. There is one but that I will showcase but it deals with a certain application of a piston and a docking port. I'm going to have a few videos showing what not to do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

phoenix_ca Posted May 13, 2014 Share Posted May 13, 2014 Did I read that part of his post right? TweakScale? As in, far less part spam? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BudgetHedgehog Posted May 13, 2014 Share Posted May 13, 2014 Yes indeed. Just one hinge and you can right click and make it big, normal or tiny. It's wonderful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's wonderful.Well, glad to see it's seeing more adoption. I know Biotronic is working on extending it too, so it can resize other things, like engines (YES FECKKING ENGINES).

sirkut Posted May 13, 2014 Author Share Posted May 13, 2014 Yup. TweakScale is certainly in use with his parts. In fact you can download them and test them out right now.I would implement TweakScale but I'm unsure if I want to because I know some will complain it will break their saves. :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phoenix_ca Posted May 13, 2014 Share Posted May 13, 2014 Those parts are slated to replace the current ones anyway, right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sirkut Posted May 13, 2014 Author Share Posted May 13, 2014 Those parts are slated to replace the current ones anyway, right?Yup. It's to quell the incessant fussing about how crappy my parts are and that they don't look stock enough. I may get bored and redo all my parts using references from the squad textures.

BudgetHedgehog Posted May 13, 2014 Share Posted May 13, 2014 Well, that's just a texture change.. Zodius is changing the model as well and everything. Does that mean you have plans to keep your models as an alternative to Zodius's? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
